Hi,

I just realised, I never received my free skincare set. i thought it came in the second campaign. What was I supposed to get? Cleanser and Moisuriser ?

you have to order it using a code. it's a trial size of day and night cream and a full size eye cream. bear in mind the platinum 60+ kit is a mix of platinum and ultimate, because there is currently no platinum eye cream. next order try using one of these:

[FONT=Default Sans Serif,Verdana,Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif]Rejuvenate 30+ kit- product number 69005
Reversalist 40+kit- product number 68809
Ultimate 50+ kit- product number 68445
Platinum 60+ kit- product number 68205

Hi all,

I'm so sorry to comment as I have not had the time to look through all of this thread but I really need expert help! I had a knock at the door at the beginning of the week from a SL as I had previously ordered 1 item from Avon. She said she was looking for a new rep for my area and I think I have been taken in and heard what I wanted to hear!!! (

Basically I have been given a territory of around 300 houses in 7 local roads (which I think is strange as what I have managed to read is that others have been struggling to get extra territory) and 10 people who had ordered £20-£30 in the past to cover HOV. I was told to canvass the area but it wouldn't be hard as a lot of the work had been done by the previous rep! I have been given 20 C17 and 20 C18 brochures and have been dropping them both off since!.

I have been out at least 5 times a day with my 2 very little children and basically moving the brochures along. I am finding that people are leaving them out without looking at them which in turn allows me to pick them up and redeliver asap. So far since Monday I have delivered to about 120 houses and had 1 order of £11 from a close neighbour, and 5 brochures thrown away!

I am at the point where I don't know if I should continue and need help please! It seems that the previous rep that I bought from in her first campaign gave up for whatever reason??? I don't know! I was lead to believe that her previous orders had made the HOV and that I didn't need to worry! All of those that have ordered from her have left the brochure out within an hour of me posting it through the letter box...

I have had another neighbour who wants to order as she wanted foundation from the previous rep who never returned from order/brochure pick up. It seems that most of the people I have managed to speak to have said they don't want to be delivered to and about 5 have said they would like it every 6 months or so! Another close neighbour would like to place a small order...

What would you do from here? I can't see me making MOV from here and OH supports me but thinks I have been lead into thinking we could actually earn something from this! Please help???

Many thanks x

i just realised i didn't get a gift for reaching HOV on my 3rd order... does it come with 4th order?

You get the gift for 3rd and 4th campaign together, can't remember what it is though, think it's some kind of folder or bag

Hi ladies

I was just having a browse on the rep site and noticed this under service news for C17,18 and C1:

Due to the high demand for the Wrap Your Own Gift Set, we are unable to deliver the gold basket from this product until next campaign. We have sent all of the other products from the Gift Set.

Surely this doesn't mean we won't receive the baskets until C2????! That would mean no one receives them in time for Xmas??
I've loads of these on order :eek:

possibly but you may be lucky enough to get yours. I ordered 3, and have seen the innards, but not sure if I got the baskets, haven't really unpacked the boxes. Have lost my engagement ring, I think it went in the washing machine, plumber took it apart and couldn't find it, so am not really concentrating on anything at the moment and it is DS's birthday on monday.

we don't have insurance and there is a special story behind my ring. And I need to find the receipt which is somewhere safe with all my other safe paperwork...lol

DH might have insurance with his bank but I have to tell him bad news tomorrow when he gets back.

I suppose people could put the items in some other basket, but they won't get recompensed for having to buy another basket.

Think I'll say to them if they want to keep it I will give it them for 6 quid or they can return it. Then if the baskets turn up it's a bonus....? Technically you could still wrap it up without a basket.

Dont give up on the ring, my grandma lost her wedding ring and 30 years after when they were moving house she found it under the lino in the kitchen!
